DIY Laundry Soap

What you’ll need:

· 76-oz box Borax

· 2-lb box baking soda

· 55-oz box washing soda

· 12 oz soap (Boraxo Hand Soap or hand-grated bar soap is best


Find these ingredients in the laundry aisle of your local grocery store or buy online at www.soapsgonebuy.com or www.amazon.com.


Combine ingredients and use 2 T for regular loads and up to ¼ cup for greasy/grungy clothes. (Works fine in high-efficiency washing machines.)

Note: At warm and hot water temperatures, Borax gets partially converted to hydrogen peroxide, so any dark or colored clothes should be washed in cool or cold water.
